This book was released on 1990-02-01 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reevaluates the health risks of ionizing radiation in light of data that have become available since the 1980 report on this subject was published. The data include new, much more reliable dose estimates for the A-bomb survivors, the results of an additional 14 years of follow-up of the survivors for cancer mortality, recent results of follow-up studies of persons irradiated for medical purposes, and results of relevant experiments with laboratory animals and cultured cells. It analyzes the data in terms of risk estimates for specific organs in relation to dose and time after exposure, and compares radiation effects between Japanese and Western populations.

Download or read book Health Risks from Exposure to Low Levels of Ionizing Radiation written by Committee to Assess Health Risks from Exposure to Low Levels of Ionizing Radiation and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-03-23 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the seventh in a series of titles from the National Research Council that addresses the effects of exposure to low dose LET (Linear Energy Transfer) ionizing radiation and human health. Updating information previously presented in the 1990 publication, Health Effects of Exposure to Low Levels of Ionizing Radiation: BEIR V, this book draws upon new data in both epidemiologic and experimental research. Ionizing radiation arises from both natural and man-made sources and at very high doses can produce damaging effects in human tissue that can be evident within days after exposure. However, it is the low-dose exposures that are the focus of this book. So-called “late” effects, such as cancer, are produced many years after the initial exposure. This book is among the first of its kind to include detailed risk estimates for cancer incidence in addition to cancer mortality. BEIR VII offers a full review of the available biological, biophysical, and epidemiological literature since the last BEIR report on the subject and develops the most up-to-date and comprehensive risk estimates for cancer and other health effects from exposure to low-level ionizing radiation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Strahlenbiologie hat sich von einem Forschungszweig, mit dem sich noch vor wenigen J ahrzehnten nur die Strahlentherapeuten und vereinzelte Biologen beschaftigten, zu einem Arbeitsgebiet entwickelt, das die gesamte Medizin und weiteste Gebiete der Biologie interessieren muB. Auf dem Gebiet der Radiologie wird die Radiobiologie von zwei verschiedenen Richtungen gefOrdert. Einerseits - hier ist der Ursprung dieser vVissenschaft zu suchen - ergeben sich aus der klinischen Beobachtung Fragestellungen, die man auf experimentellem \Veg zu beantworten versucht. Andererseits bearbeitet eine besondere Gruppe von Biologen, die vornehmlich die ionisierende Strahlung als Instru ment benutzt, ihre Probleme. Beide Gebiete haben enge Verbindung, sollten sich gegen seitig fOrdern und konnen auch vereint, sogar durch dieselbe Person, ihre praktische Auswirkung erfahren. Zuerst haben die Radiologen ihre mannigfaltigen Probleme selbst aufzuklaren versucht. Mit zunehmender Verbesserung und Verfeinerung der Methode hat sich im Rahmen der Radiologie die besondere Arbeitsrichtung der Radiobiologie ausgesondert, die heute zum Teil eigene Wege geht. Die Radiobiologie gewinnt fur die Strahlentherapie immer mehr an Bedeutung, so daB man versucht ist, die Hoffnung auszudrucken, daB die Radiobiologie berufen sein wird, die Radiotherapie aus der empiri schen Sphare in eine exakt fundierte zu fum'en. In noch starkerem MaB hat sich auf dem Gebiet der Radiodiagnostik die Situation gewandelt. Ohne grundliche radiobiologische Kenntnisse kann die Anwendung ionisierender Strahlen fUr Untersuchungszwecke heute nicht mehr verantwortet werden. Die Nuclearmedizin vereinigt auf radiobiologischem Gebiet die Forderungen, die fur Radiotherapie und -diagnostik aufgestellt wurden.

This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Progress in Psychobiology and Physiological Psychology, Volume 9 reviews developments in the fields of psychobiology and physiological psychology, with emphasis on selected areas of research relating brain mechanisms and behavior. Topics covered range from sensory-perceptual systems in mammals to behavioral modulation of visual responses in monkeys. Brain pathways for vocal learning in birds are also examined, along with neural mechanisms in taste aversion learning. Comprised of seven chapters, this volume begins with an insightful account of the evolution of concepts regarding cortical organization relevant to perception in mammals. Studies of single unit activity in awake, behaving monkeys are then presented, followed by a discussion on the neural control of song in birds. In particular, the brain pathways involved in vocal learning in birds are defined anatomically and physiologically, including the presence of hemispheric dominance and the sensitivity to steroid hormones. Subsequent chapters focus on the response characteristics of the cells in the forebrain that give stimuli their significance for associative learning; the neuropsychological mechanisms of taste aversion learning; and the psychobiology of thirst. The final chapter is devoted to the pineal gland and its anatomical connection to the eyes, together with pineal hormones, polypeptides, and proteins. This book should appeal to biologists, psychologists, and physiologists.
